When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH.

    Great story! Really...one of the best I've read. Hope you can find the time to finish. You have adoring fans waiting. :)

Snape and Harry are locked in the Room of Requirement by Dumbledore. Harry's magic works, and Snape's doesn't. Will they kill each other? In response to the 72-Hour Challenge.

    Wow! Just read all 24 chapters after finding this story last night. Really nice writing style and great story line. I love your Snape and Harry; both are in character. It's amazing how many stories ignore Snape's violent tendencies, so I'm glad to see you use that to show his weaknesses. So much to say that I hardly know where to begin. In short...I love it! Great job!

With the Dursleys away Harry is left needing a place to stay and the most unlikely candidate steps forward. A Harry and Snape guardian fic. Please read and review!

    Very nice story. Wow, what a cliffhanger! Hope to see more soon.

    Author's Response: I'm sorry to say that I've neglected this story. But the next chapter is in the works and will be up soon! Thanks so much for the review!

Harry wants more than anything to be more like his father. In an attempt to change himself something goes wrong and he ends up in the care of his hated Potions Master. Can they form the bond Harry has longed for his whole life?
This story is AU and will not be following canon.

    Very cute story. Looking forward to more.

Post OoTP. Alternate Timeline. Harry's had a wretched summer. To top it off, Dumbledore insists he continue studies in Occlumency with the dreaded Severus Snape. Will he and Snape learn to get along?

    I just found your story yesterday and have been glued to it! Your Snape is quite realistic; the interactions with Harry are suspenseful and angsty. Love it! In the last chapter you were concerned about people's responses to Snape roughly grabbing Harry's arm, but that is probably quite Canon since he did throw Harry across the room after the Pensieve incident. I believe that making Harry kill the mice would be a very effective punishment and a good way of making he think before he acts in the future. In Canon, he was distraught after using Sectumsempra on Draco and actually seeing what he had done. You've woven a nice complex plot and made an original character, Connor, very interesting. Good job! Looking forward to more.

    Author's Response:

    So glad you've been enjoying it:)

    Yes I want Snape to seem capable of being harsh, cruel and acting wrongly at times (cos I think he is) but I don't want to make him irredeemable.

    I'm pleased you like Connor- there will be more about him soon.

     Thanks lots for leaving a review :)


When Lily and James' will is discovered in the ruins of Godric's Hollow, what secrets will be revealed? Will two sworn enemies be able to lay aside their differences for the sake of a boy who desperately wants a family?

    I'm a little late showing up to this story, but I am really enjoying it! Your snarky Snape is very in character and scary (just the way I like it). ;) I like the way you are mixing canon and your own creative story. Now we have an idea why Lupin is acting strangely...can't wait to find out more. Hope you will have time to update soon, we need to know whether Harry is going to survive Snape's wrath! Great job with the writing and for an entertaining plot.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks. I love a snarky Snape too.

     

    I'm sorry that I've been so slow with updates. I will try to do better. I wrote a fest fic too, so that also took time away from updating this story, and also some computer problems.


Catastrophic events culminate in an unexpected kinship between some of Hogwarts’ most tenacious foes, while inciting bitter battles between best friends.

    Just found this story and read all 16 chapters over the course of the day. Really nice! I like the complexity of the story and the angst between Snape and Harry. My first thought during the lunch scene (based on Snape's reaction) is that Malcolm accused Snape of a sexual relationship with Harry. That would be uncomfortable for Snape, I'm sure. But then simply threatening to hurt Harry would have a horrifying effect on Snape as well. Guess we will find out exactly what was said in upcoming chapters. :) Glad Malfoy is getting some comfort from Snape. I'm really enjoying your story and looking forward to more!

    Author's Response: I'm so glad you found the story and that you like it! Thanks so much for the kind words and I will do my best to update as soon as possible!

Set at the end of the fourth book, Snape has to deal with a grieving Harry after Cedric's death. Harry is acting the best he can to atone, and Snape can't stand an angelic Harry. Warning: Spanking of a teen.

    Great! I love this series and am glad you occasionally write additions. That's fun. Will we get to see any of Snape and Harry at Hogwarts?

Harry runs into Snape while trying to find the definition of home, and finds himself drawn into Snape's summer Order task by the headmaster, looking for a location outside of London. Along the way, he and Snape learn a few new definitions themselves.

    Nice chapter! Good description of Harry -- starting off seeking approval but ending with getting into mischief. :) Looking forward to the coming "scary" scene of Snape's wrath!

    Poor Harry. That was such a well written chapter full of great emotions and subtle changes in each character. Thank you for updating so quickly. I am really enjoying this story.
